Page 6 - Journey of Grief

BEGINNING TO REORGANISE

For most people the experience of grief changes them and their

value of life. Life cannot go back to how it was prior to the

death, usually with time, there is an acceptance of the new

situation.

Grief is a healing process; necessary to organise your life in a

meaningful way in the future.

Eventually you will find that you are beginning to see things

logically and realistically again.

Often there will be periods when you feel you are recovering

only to find that something reminds you of the person who has

died and you are overwhelmed by sadness again.

You may feel guilt that you are beginning to have periods of

feeling better and laughter.

All these experiences are normal and need understanding by

friends and family.
